i get every sunday off and every other saturday. then i get 3 vacation days a year plus 3 sick days, but sick days are not paid time off, they just don't fire you for not being there.
So that's why the education system continues to produce a load of dunces. The teachers are never in school long enough to actually educate them!!!!Boomer wrote:Mrs Boomer's a teacher and one drunken night (don't ask why) me and a mate (who was dating a teacher) worked out that you get 93 days holiday a year!!!Swale_Gooner1985 wrote:Do you really want me to post mine on here? i dont want to make anyone jealous! I get around 15 weeks off a year for summer holidays, easter, christmas etc... then add weekends into that, and i get a couple of study days here and there, oh and we usually have a staff development day each term which is a complete doss about...so quite a lot really!
and as far as holidays go, I had a week in lanzarote and a week in Menorca, both in August
That's not including weekends.

I apreciate that as im a cabby my hours and holidays may be somewhat different from a person on paye.
I should have a full 1 week break somewhere relaxing to re-charge my batterys...Preferably next to a pool or on the beach.
Can anyone recommend anywhere with the sun on me back in january?

it is cheap for englishmen like yourself (not as much as it used to be, but it still is kinda cheap) and there's as much sun and heat as you could ever want. if you decide to do so, and decide to come to southern brazil, you also have a tour guide at your disposal
and, of course, a pal for sharing a few ales and watching arsenal matches. i can even look for hotels and stuff with good prices around here if ya want. just shout it and i can give you a hand.
what i DO NOT recommend is rio de janeiro and the northern beaches. i know, it's beautiful and famous, but it is too fucking dangerous. specially for guys like you who will have the word tourist written in your forehead!!
other nice alternative is uruguai. people don't talk much about it, but it is even cheaper than brazil and really really really beautiful. great beaches, great weather, nice towns etcetera. however, in uruguai, you won't find as many babes in small bikinis as in brazil

Oh Boomer you were doing so well right up until the bold part ends.Boomer wrote:Mrs Boomer's a teacher and one drunken night (don't ask why) me and a mate (who was dating a teacher) worked out that you get 93 days holiday a year!!!

Well something like that at least.Boomer wrote:Mrs Boomer's a teacher and one drunken night (don't ask why) me and a mate (who was dating a teacher) pretended to be naughty boys kept behind in detention. The teachers, with hair in pigtails, bent us over and gently spanked us for being so naughty until we snatched the cane's from them and bent them over the make shift desk in the kitchen and passed our A level's with flying colours.

You guys work all hours, then have to beg your medial insurance company to save your life when you're on your deathbed.Number 5 wrote:Oh Boomer you were doing so well right up until the bold part ends.Boomer wrote:Mrs Boomer's a teacher and one drunken night (don't ask why) me and a mate (who was dating a teacher) worked out that you get 93 days holiday a year!!!
